RSpec All The Things

This is a demo application for showing how RSpec and Ruby can be used to test applications in other languages. In this case, we are testing a simple server written in Go. The project includes:

Gemfile & Gemfile.lock

Represent the Ruby dependencies. Dependencies can be installed via gem install bundler; bundle install

spec/spec_helper.rb

The RSpec configuration, including starting and stopping the Go server

spec/runner.rb

Contains the code to spawn the Go server in a new process, and to kill that same process

spec/ping_spec.rb

tests.sh
